Watch Chokers: Yea or Nay?

First Rhianna and now Taylor Swift! Wearing a watch choker seems like it’s becoming a thing, and I’m genuinely curious about what you watch nerds think about it! Let’s get a good conversation going! I personally think it’s cool and interesting 😜

I dont think it will become a thing, seems a bit out of place to me

I love that people are trying to create and think outside the box. I just think that this is a failed attempt

It definitely does feel out of the box and bizarre, and if it ever catches on, I’m sure it’ll take a while for it to become something that not only celebrities do. I feel like we’re on the knife’s edge, it might totally flop, or it might really catch on🤔 only time will tell haha

Bit hard to tell the time 😂 Use a mirror?

Yeah it’s definitely not practical in any sense but has fashion ever been?😂

Honestly, I do not get it. I see absolutely no point in wearing a functioning timepiece around your neck. It kind of defeats the point of watches.

·

Same concept... Why should men have all the fun?.😊

Please take a picture if you do :-)

No.

How will they know what time is it?

Ask someone to check on them? 😂

·

It's an invitation to look at their watch and tell them the time. Nice ice breaker? Hehehe

·

Nay

·

I'm gonna say no, but I don't think anyone willing to wear that gives a flying f*ck what we think.

·

Looks ridiculous. The wearer can't see the time and neither can anyone else cos it's sideways. Apparently this was meant to allude to her album "Midnights" but it looks like 3:15 with a misaligned handset. Nope.

·

There is a tramp stamp style joke I could make about how these should be at the back of the neck

·

The one on Taylor is pretty subtle and okay. Not the other one . . . that's more like a blinged out GPS collar haha.

I'm not worried about practicality for these pieces in particular b/c that's not the pt. You wear something like this for pure fashion/statement etc. Can I see this becoming a thing? Not really . . . not in a serious way. I CAN see a certain demographic and maybe some Swifties doing this now . . . but again just for the statement not b/c they want to wear a time piece. Nothing wrong with any of this. I'm sure we've all worn some questionable things during various trends.

·

Hey what’s the time?

Dunno hang on. Let me go find Taylor.

It’s 11:30

Oh great thanks

·

It's...bizarre. What do you do...ask your date what time it is so they look at your neck and tell you? Weird. 🙄

·

Maybe the watch has an app the tracks your pulse... 🙄

·

I understand a pendant watch, I even own a few. But this is pointless. A watch you have to take off to read?????

That would be cool, however neither of those watches are smart in any way😂

Either their goals are beyond our understanding or they did not think it through 😂

·

One uses one's vanity mirror to tell the time. Victorian chic.

·

And they say staring at the region bellow the woman's face is rude 😂

·

Taylor swift and chokers don't get me started but these girls aren't trendy setters was it not Rolex that sponsored the first woman to swim the English channel

And she wore the Rolex around her neck thing is apparently she failed that attempt only to succeed without wearing the Rolex at all I may have got the location wrong but the story is true enough ..

·

Need mirror as well🤣

·

Doesn‘t make sense at all ans just looks weird and odd. But for watch publicity, it is kind of like „in your face“ approach. Don‘t have to spot any wrists.

·

I'm certainly not going to wear one.
